What else can I help you with?
What is a mass of nerve tissue that receives and sends nerve impulses?
Neuron
What part in the human body receives nerve impulses from the central nervous system that causes muscle fibers to contract?
Motor Neurons.
What part of a nerve cell receives impulses?
dendrites
Does a nerve provided impulses for many muscle fibers or just few?
A nerve can stimulate impulses to several muscle fibers. When muscle fibers are grouped they form a single muscle group like the biceps.
Muscle fibers contract and relax in response to what?
nerve impulses
When the muscle receives too many impulses from the nerves it causes a sprain?
Actually, a sprain is not caused by excessive nerve impulses to a muscle; it refers to the overstretching or tearing of ligaments, which are the connective tissues that connect bones at a joint. Muscle strains, on the other hand, involve the overstretching or tearing of muscles or tendons. Overactive nerve impulses can lead to muscle spasms or cramps, but they do not directly result in sprains. Proper warm-up and conditioning can help prevent both sprains and strains.
What kinds of compounds in the body transmit impulses between nerve and muscle cells?
Neurotransmitters such as acetylcholine transmit impulses between nerve and muscle cells. These chemical messengers are released at the synapse where nerve and muscle cells meet, allowing for the transmission of signals that trigger muscle contraction.
How do the functions of the two groups of peripheral groups differ?
the spinal nerves "receives" the nerve impulses from the rest of the body while the cranial nerves "process" these nerve impulses.
What lobe has impulses traveling down the cranial nerve 2?
impulses travel down cranial nerve 2 to what lobe
True or false the thalamus receives indirect nerve impulses and relays them to the cortex?
true
What part of the eye receives impulses from the cones and rods?
i think the hippocampus.
The same as a motor nerve?
A motor nerve is connected to a muscle or gland and causes it to work.
